NewsDay wishes to retract an article published on May 29, 2024, headlined Minister sucked into vehicle scandal.
We acknowledge that the article contained inaccuracies.
Upon review, we have confirmed that Mashonaland Central Provincial Affairs minister Christopher Magomo never defended Mvurwi Town Council executives for allegedly bypassing tender procedures in the purchase of a fleet of expensive cars.
Additionally, there was no report from the Mvurwi Town Residents and Ratepayers Trust questioning Magomo’s integrity.
We take this opportunity to sincerely apologise to Magomo for any embarrassment and harm caused to his reputation by the article.— Editor
